Chapter 22: Colby’s Exploration Outcome
The giant wolf was also covered in wounds.
Its thick fur was split open, revealing the bright red flesh inside.
Zong Shen focused and checked their attributes.
Colby had two-thirds of his health points left.
It was the same for the adult giant wolf Fenrir. It had lost about a third of its health points.
Fenrir’s armor was as high as 35 points, and his health points was 435. He was an out-and-out tanker.
To be able to cause it to lose more than 100 health points, it was enough to show how intense the battle was.
“What happened to cause your injuries?”
Zong Shen narrowed his eyes and asked coldly.
“Feudal Lord, I have made a few important discoveries during this exploration!”
“As for my injuries, they came from a Goblin tribe in the forest 1807 miles north of the territory!”
“That Goblin tribe is huge. There’s a watchtower outside. I can’t observe it from a close distance!”
“Besides, there are experienced scouts in this Goblin tribe.”
“I was discovered by the scouts when I was wandering around the periphery. Then, I was surrounded by the Goblin Archers, Goblin Axe Throwers, and Goblin Mages.”
“I immediately chose to ride Fenrir into the forest. After roaming around, I finally escaped their pursuit.”
“To be safe, Fenrir and I took a long detour before we reached the territory.”
“They left behind these injuries in just a single exchange…”
Colby dropped to one knee and hung his head, looking deflated.
Zong Shen nodded and reached out to pat his broad shoulders.
Indeed, the Wolf Cavalry soldier had explored a large area.
“Get up and talk in the straw shed. You can slowly recover your health there.”
“Luna, help me get some Moon Spring Water from the empty jar.”
Luna immediately rode her black panther into the yard.
Those farmers also very consciously walked out of the straw shed and gave up their positions.
Zong Shen led Colby and the giant wolf into the shed.
Resting in the straw shed could restore 1 health point per hour. It was better than nothing.
At this moment, Luna had already retrieved the Moon Spring Water and handed it to Zong Shen.
“Come, everyone, drink some.”
Luna brought about 150 ml of Moon Spring Water, which could recover 1.2 health points per milliliter.
Just these were three hours of the Moon Well’s production.
Since the construction of the Moon Well at noon, it had only produced about 300ml. This time, Colby and Fenrir were going to use up half the amount.
However, Zong Shen did not feel any reluctance at all.
Colby was a qualified warrior. He was injured in order to complete the exploration mission.
Therefore, Zong Shen would not treat him badly.
No matter how precious the Moon Spring Water was, it couldn’t compare to a loyal warrior.
Colby took the jar carefully.
But he did not drink it.
Instead, he fed half to his mount, the giant wolf Fenrir, first.
The Moon Spring Water was indeed magical.
The effect was immediate.
The wounds on the giant wolf’s body began to heal at a visible rate.
At that moment, Colby drew his wolf rider’s machete from his belt and cut the arrowhead that had penetrated his shoulder.
Then, he gritted his teeth and put down his machete. With his other hand, he grabbed the tail of the arrow and pulled it out from his muscles.
Instantly, blood sprayed out.
Colby’s arm flexed and his muscles were tightened together as he forced the wound shut.
At this moment, he picked up the jar and drank the remaining small mouthful of Moon Spring Water!
“He’s really a wolfman. He’s even more ruthless than a vicious person!”
Zong Shen was dumbfounded. Colby’s method for healing was too hardcore.
Moreover, he didn’t make a single sound or groan the entire time. He didn’t even frown.
His face seemed to be carved out of stone. It was hard, strong, and brave!
After he was done recuperating.
The giant wolf laid on the wooden ground in the straw shed and fell into a deep sleep.
Colby sat cross-legged.
Then, he began to report the results of today’s exploration.
“Lord!”
“Besides the Goblin tribe, I also discovered some remains.”
“To the northwest, in the dense forest beside the path leading into the mountains, I found an abandoned temple.”
“In the middle of the forest, it was completely covered by vines and moss. I saw two treasure chests, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t open them or take them away.”
“In addition, there’s an abandoned outpost with a watchtower at the top of a mountain path in the northwest. This outpost has been occupied by a group of traveling merchants, and I haven’t had any contact with them yet.”
“There’s a mine between the forest and the pasture in the northeast. We might be able to make use of it again, but there’s a five-meter-long Blood-toothed Wild Boar loitering outside the mine. That seems to be its territory.”
“As for the Goblin Tribe, it’s deep in the mountains in the north. It’s hidden too. This time, I’ve alarmed them. I wonder if they’ll send people to explore this meadow.”
Colby said worriedly.
Zong Shen nodded and waved his hand casually.
“Colby, you did great.”
“As for the Goblins, they should be fine for now. 180 miles is not a short distance. Even if the Goblins send scouts, it will take them a few days to discover this place.”
“As long as it’s not a large group, we can deal with them.”
“Humph, when our territory becomes stronger, we’ll have to find these Goblins to kill them.”
Zong Shen waved his fist and said in a sinister tone.
Damn Goblins, how dare they bully his subordinates!
It seemed that the Goblins occupied the northern mountain range.
As the saying goes, two tigers cannot share one mountain. As their territory gradually expanded, they would meet sooner or later.
Since he had discovered it earlier, he could make preparations earlier!
Zong Shen had silently listed the Goblin Tribe as his opposing target.
It had been an entire day since he transmigrated here.
He was becoming more and more accepting of this world.
Goblins were nothing in a world where wolf cavalry and night hunters could appear.
Goblins were legendary humanoid creatures with green skin.
They looked similar to Orcs and Gnomes.
They usually had long pointed ears.
Goblins were creatures from Western myths. Many games, animations, and stories had relevant descriptions and records.
Humans were often hostile to humanoid creatures.
And vice versa.
At this moment, the grilled wolf meat on the stove had already been cooked.
There was no need for him to worry about cooking on the stove.
As long as he provided the ingredients and chose a cooking task, he could automatically complete it.
Zong Shen took out the grilled wolf meat.
He handed Colby a piece and left a bucket of clear water and an unknown piece of dried meat.
This was for Fenrir.
“You’ve done very well, Colby. Just get some rest tonight.”
Zong Shen encouraged Colby.
Then, he walked out of the straw shed and prepared to distribute the food.
